Welcome to the Daily Living for Christ podcast. In this episode, we begin a transformative journey into an ancient Christian practice—Lectio Divina, or “sacred reading.” This timeless spiritual discipline invites us to slow down, be present, and engage with the Word of God in a deeply personal and reverent way.

Donald shares the powerful impact Lectio Divina has had in his life, including a visit to the Prince of Peace Abbey, a Benedictine monastery in California, where silence, stillness, and Scripture created a tangible experience of God’s peace. Rooted in monastic tradition but now accessible to all believers, Lectio Divina offers more than Bible reading—it is a sacred encounter, a living dialogue with the Holy Spirit.

In this episode, we explore:
✅ The four movements of Lectio Divina: Read, Reflect, Respond, and Rest
✅ Why the Word of God is living and active, transforming not just the mind, but the heart
✅ How reverence, silence, and presence create space for the Holy Spirit to work within us
✅ The connection between Lectio Divina, Centering Prayer, and spiritual formation
✅ Biblical encouragement to engage God’s Word as a source of life, healing, and deep communion

Whether you’re rediscovering contemplative practices or engaging them for the first time, this episode will guide you toward a richer, more intentional relationship with Scripture and the presence of God.
